Biggest disappointments for me were Dylan (miserable fcuk), where we were ejected if we used a phone, Streisand at the Dome, came on and sang 20 minutes worth of bits of songs, and then had a trumpeter, orchestra, and her son filling in for the rest of the 3 hour gig. Left after an hour.
Costello at the Bridgewater hall, my god his voice was crap, he sat most of the gig, and yes he did sing some hits but no backing group it was hollow and bumbling. Declan took my money and ran!
Adam Ant. You know, going to 80's full day 'lets rock' gigs can be rewarding. However about 4 years ago he started to demand he and the 'ants' were given top billing. You could tell from the moment the first song struck up that he had no voice, no ability to keep a not, and he literally mumbled, bumbled and wheezed for breath. I left after 20 mins along with about 65% of the crowd.
The Farm, you know your in trouble when you stand in a muddy cold field and the Farm come on for a 40 minute gig. Hell on earth apart from 'The' song that we all know, and that was strung out for a 15 minute sing song.
Tpau, no voice, no charisma, no style, no gravitas, no hope!
A few years ago, me and tother half were on our way to Kenya for a holiday, and travelled to London From ooooop north to show her some of the sights in Leicester Square as she'd never been.
Hungry, we walked into a place with an out door seating area, and ordered 2 burgers and fries, a gin for her, and a Brasilian beer for me.
very nice it all was, except the bill was £59.75 ........ then i realise i'd walked into Marco Pierre Whites place by accident.
I've been waiting for 6 months to see a specialist regarding the deteriorating condition of my left leg, ever since i twisted it climbing out of an Artic.
the inner s9de of my left legstarted givng grief so i went to the doctors, possible Miniscus detachment by my knee.
Ok, no worries, he put me down for physiotherapy (i'm NHS i'm afraid), and i went on a list in March. I got asked to see a doctor again a few months later who diagnosed torn knee cartiledge, and im back on the waiting list. Fair enough.
Subsequently, the outside of my left thigh from the knee up, goes numb. So dead in fact that you can push a pin into my thigh and i wont feel anything.
So, off to the docs again, and i get referred to a specialist. I go in, this therapist finds loads wrong with my knee and leg and after 45 mins (as apparently thats the max time they allocate to a patient) i'm out and on my way with the promise of proper therapy....... Ok, i get a letter and e-mail...... multiple times so i dont forget to go again on Friday of this week.
And this morning i get numerous e-mails and texts and a phone call telling me the appointment is now cancelled (due to unforseen circumstances) and they will be in touch. but no idea of when.
Excuse the pun, but it's a real pain and i'm having to work (literally) with it 5 days a week.
I know others are in a worse state than me, and appreciate that,i just wanted to vent my frustration to my mates here. Thanks Dave
Just popped into Maccy D's for a convenience burger and was shocked to find that their burgers are like 1mm wafers, and over all the burger and bun is around 25% smaller for the same money. in relation to the one i had last week!
Anyway, i thought a burger thread on here was needed, so i can canvas you all as to your thoughts regarding your best fast food, artisan, value burger around.
There used to be a great place in Liverpool that was an artisan place and called 'Almost famous' and had great beers, great drinks for the kids, and above all else fantastic burgers
Locations please and opinions on your favourite place
